The Chicago Bulls did a good job putting on the show for the United Center fans tonight in the Bulls’ home opener, completely obliterating the Memphis Grizzlies 104-64. The Bulls looked like they were going to blowout the Grizzlies from the get go, getting out to an early double digit lead in the first quarter.  That result became a certainty when Zach Randolph went down with a knee injury after a diving O.J. Mayo crashed into his leg.  According to the television broadcast, Randolph only bruised his knee.  Let’s hope that is all the damage that was done to Randolph and that nothing tore, so he can return to the Grizzlies lineup soon. Once Randolph went out, the Grizzlies seemed to throw up the white flag.  The Bulls led 25-12 after the first quarter, 54-28 at halftime, and 84-44 after the third quarter.  The game was truly something amazing to watch as far as NBA basketball goes, I don’t think I have ever witnessed such an embarrassing display of basketball in all...
